Okay, so I’ve been wanting to make one of these monthly astrology calendars for a while now. You know, something to keep track of the moon phases, retrogrades, and all that jazz. So, I finally got around to doing it. Here’s how it went down.
Gathering My Tools
First things first, I needed to gather my tools. I grabbed my laptop, obviously. Then, I dug out my old notebook where I scribble down random astrology stuff. I also made sure I had a decent internet connection because, let’s be real, I was gonna be Googling a lot.
Finding the Right Info
Next up, I had to find the right info. Now, I’m no astrology expert, but I know the basics. I started by looking up the moon phases for the month. There are tons of websites out there that have this info, so that part was easy peasy. Then I had checked the major transits, like when Mercury goes retrograde or when there’s a full moon in Scorpio. That stuff can really mess with your energy, you know?
Designing the Calendar
Once I had all the info, it was time to design the actual calendar. I’m not much of a graphic designer, so I kept it simple. I just used a basic calendar template that I found online. But I did use my graphic software to make a template. Then, I started plugging in the dates for the moon phases and transits. I used different colors for different events, just to make it easier to read. I wanted it to look kind of pretty, so I added some little star and moon icons here and there. I also made sure to leave some space for notes, because I like to jot down how I’m feeling during certain astrological events.
Printing and Assembling
After I was happy with the design, it was time to print it out. I don’t have a fancy printer or anything, just a regular old inkjet. But it did the job. Once it was printed, I trimmed the edges to make it look a bit neater. And that’s pretty much it! I had my very own monthly astrology calendar.
Final Thoughts
Honestly, it was way easier than I thought it would be. And it’s actually really useful! I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks now, and it’s helped me stay more in tune with the cosmic energies. Plus, it’s just kind of fun to look at. I might even make it a monthly thing. Who knows, maybe I’ll even start selling them or something. But for now, I’m just happy to have a little tool to help me navigate the stars.
- Started with gathering tools – laptop, notebook, internet.
- Found moon phases and major transits online.
- Used a basic calendar template and customized it.
- Printed it out and trimmed the edges.
- Boom! Custom astrology calendar achieved.
It was a fun little project, and I’m pretty stoked with how it turned out. If you’re into astrology, I definitely recommend giving it a try. It’s a cool way to connect with the universe and maybe even learn a little something about yourself along the way.
